to land-use planning do not identify high-priority wetlands in advance of development; (3) wetlands are economically undervalued; (4) there is a “techno-arrogance” associated with wetland creation and restoration that results in increased wetland loss, and; (5) compensation requirements are ...
Freshwater mineral soil wetlands are present in numerous large wetland complexes worldwide, such as the Prairie Pothole Region of North America (Bansal et al.2023b), the Sanjiang Plain of Northeast China (Zhang et al.2008), and the Florida Everglades (Mitsch and Gosselink2015). Despite wetlands...
Contingent valuation showed that the residents of Trinidad were willing to pay an average of $56 for conserving the Swamp. The analysis also showed that ecotourism represents an economically feasible use of ecologically fragile resources of this wetland. 展开 关键词:...
The global wastewater surge demands constructed wetlands (CWs) to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG); yet the pollutant removal interactions and global sustainability of small CWs are unclear. This study synthesizes small CW data from
economically important species (Liu, 2013). Coastal wetlands in China contain a rich and diverse marine flora and fauna, including a wide variety of aquatic animals and amphibians, of which many have lost habitat due to heavy pollution and anthropogenic coastal constructions; these species include ...
Wetlands such as prairie potholes, vernal pools, and playas are both ecologically and economically important systems in North America (Calhoun et al., 2017). Playas are ephemerally flooded, depositional landforms located in topographic low areas of hydrologically closed dryland catchments (Shaw & ...
Estuarine wetlands are often located in economically developed and densely populated areas, and their reclamation has become an important way to acquire land resources. To explore the effect of reclamation on the carbon sink function of estuarine wetlands, the Chongming Dongtan reclaimed wetland and ...
In a waterlogged areas of southern Bangladesh, floating agriculture has already been a successful crop production method and is noted as an economically viable practice (Pavel et al., 2014). As a result, this traditional method is critical for rural farmers in other parts of Bangladesh who are...
Global Analysis of the Transcriptional Response of Whitefly to Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl China Virus Reveals the Relationship of Coevolved Adaptations The begomoviruses are the largest and most economically important group of plant viruses transmitted exclusively by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci in a circul....
Conventional wastewater treatment plants constitute the major source of these contaminants in the environment due to their incomplete removal by unspecific treatment methods. While advanced treatment technologies are available to treat these substances, their use is oftentimes not economically justified under ...
